Original: Article: Abbas Amir-Ghashlaghi Hanged for Drug Offences in Arak

Iran Human Rights reports that Abbas Amir-Ghashlaghi was hanged in Arak prison, central Iran, on drug-related charges. The group has repeatedly criticised Iran's use of the death penalty for narcotics offences, arguing that such executions frequently follow flawed legal proceedings. Iran continues to carry out executions for drug crimes despite international calls to halt the practice.

Why now: Human rights groups are drawing renewed attention to Iran's execution of prisoners convicted of drug offences.
